Liberalism has always been a pathological, delusional entity and it is not dead. It is simply morphing into more transparent communism. Nor does it exist in a social or political vacuum. A near majority of Americans have accepted the decadence of widespread, common abortion, open homosexuality and all its bizarre permutations, chronic drug use, neopagan earth and celebrity worship as well as non critical, politically correct, delusional thinking.

If your team just stole a Presidential lection in THE greatest national entity in the known universe, then they have NOT exhausted their potential for destructive precedent-setting. What’s worse, and with or without the social, political and economic damage they plan, the Liberal bench is a bottomless pit of certifiably lunatic, greedy, venal, drunk-on-power, ego maniacs who will carry their standard for decades to come.

America, (and subsequently the world), can expect a lot more Liberal hysteria. Prepare for a pharmaceutical nightmare to rival any third world decent into chaos, anarchy and irreversible ruin. I’m glad I’ll be dead by then.

I know a lot of Asian people friends/work associates. They REALLY resent the Left dragging them into the perma victim/constantly outraged derangement circus. They know that their enemy is the Left and that the Left is trying to keep their kids out of the best univs. And they know who is giving older Asian people beat downs on the street....and it sure ain’t YT Maga hat wearing Conservatives. Hopefully more and more will not vote Dem. I know the Left is really trying to make ‘model minority’ an evil thing, but Asians are a minority in the USA, and from my personal observation, most are MODEL CITIZENS. Nice family structure, father head of house hold, strong mothers, elders respected, hard working, nice kids who COMPETE. Gee, sounds great for our country, doesn’t it?

...liberalism ... has been constantly on the prowl for the next victim class to feed its voracious appetite by preying on their sense of victimhood.

The funny thing about communism is, when you run out of enemies...

...you never really run out of enemies.

Writer has serious rose infestation in his eyes, and is not seeing anything clearly.

We are done for. We have meekly tolerated abortion. We have meekly accepted the 2020 election illegalities that put Bidenharris in the White House. We are meekly overlooking a biological attack by China. We are meekly accepting an invasion facilitated by the federal government.

What will we not submit to? Gun confiscation? Hah. Of course we will. Mandatory vaccinations? You bet. Travel restrictions, banned speech, reparations, more lockdowns and more taxes? Cmon man, how can we not?

And Asian immigrants (and their descendants) own many small businesses, or work in high wage earner jobs.

I see the same from the Indian immigrant communities where I’ve lived as well. Hard working, strong family, high achievement expectations for their kids, and culture of respect for authority figures.

As long as you keep calling it “liberal”, which it isn’t, they will continue to thrive and find followers.

Most people my age (millennial) speak freely of socialism and say it is cool. Of course they don't know what it is, but that's socialism for you. They weren't trained to think, but to salivate.

"...What will we not submit to..."


Completely concur with all the words you posted.
We as Conservatives are sadly "all talk and no action" since we mostly keep to ourselves and focus on family, work, and friends.
As you shared...we pretty much meekly accept ANYTHING shoveled our way since we (basically) remain comfortable in our homes.

Thank you for the post MC. The author is wrong...wrong as in flat-earth theory wrong.

While the issues are ultimately spiritual (read the prophet Ezekiel on ‘everyman’s sword against his brother’), the phenomena of Wokeism, liberalism, etc. are the bacteria in the petri dish of American politics which must consume all the nutrient material before they die.

The only thing which will stop the process is the mutual destruction of the parasite and the host. Such metaphors are endless and all point in the same direction, now that the inflection point has been reached.

This process will ultimately go ‘kinetic.’ Prepare accordingly.

The ability to create new sexes (or is it genders?) at will allows an endless supply of new victims for the Rats to feast on.

You are correct. The writer is not only wrong, but very wrong. I’ll just take this statement as an example.

“First, beginning with Lyndon Johnson and his “Great Society,” it devoured African-Americans through welfare state programs that utterly failed in their original mission. “

Blacks still vote Democrat by almost overwhelming numbers. It’s been that way for nearly 70 years. That ought to tell you that they feel like the Dems have their self-interest in mind more than Republicans. We can debate WHY they feel that way, but the bottom line is that they do. Blacks have broadly become better off than they used to be. Sure, there are still large areas of urban poor, but many have moved into the “middle class”. They feel like it is mostly due to the Dems. If they feel that way, then they will still vote that way. The Leftist version of “Liberalism” ain’t no where near done.

Maybe liberalism is in its death throes, but it’s going to make darn sure it kills the country it hates before it dies.

The author is right.

“Liberalism” is the set of lies Leftists politicians and their fake news shills have been telling their constituents for the last century:

1. That the Founding principle of limiting government through Separation of Powers, the Bill of Rights, and the Constitution - was misguided.

2. That Central government must control the individual, not the other way around.

3. That the liberties guaranteed by the Constitution - the right to free speech - freedom of assembly - the right to keep and bear arms - property rights - were not really noble causes at all.

4. That limiting the power of government was really just a mechanism to allow wealthy racists to keep their wealth, and force the have nots into submission. The founders were simply wealthy racists who hobbled the central government so it would not be able to force them to share their wealth and power.

5. That our Constitutional Republic must be dismantled and replaced - fundamentally transformed.

This set of lies are what define “liberalism”. They want to liberate themselves from the constraints of the Constitution. They peddle these lies to the public and half of the people are dumb enough to believe them - those are what we call Democrats.

The author is right. The set of lies called “Liberalism” is dead - it is no longer needed - the time of lying and gaslighting is coming an end. Once they have destroyed the Republic they will no longer bother with the lies - their tyranny and exploitation will be done in the open.

Phase one: lie to the people about wealth inequality, racism, climate change, China virus - whatever.

Phase two. When you have the dumbest half of the people fooled, use Democracy to dismantle the Republic until individuals have no power over the government.

Phase three: stop lying - when you have all the power you don’t need to lie

We are entering phase three. Before long they won’t even bother telling lies
